HARRISBURG -- A Dauphin County judge has set a date to hear oral arguments on pre-trial motions in the case of two Penn State University administrators charged with perjury and failing to report suspected child abuse incidents involving former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky.
Attorneys for retired university vice president Gary Schultz and former athletic director Tim Curley will appear Aug. 16 at a hearing in Harrisburg, according to a release this morning from Dauphin County officials.
The two men are awaiting trial on charges of perjury for statements they made to a state grand jury and of failing to report the abuse incidents.
They were two of four key figures identified by former FBI director Louis Freeh in his report last week outlining how reports of Mr. Sandusky's actions were hidden by Penn State officials.
Mr. Sandusky was convicted last month on 45 of 48 counts related to sexually abusing 10 boys across the past 14 years. He is in state prison awaiting sentencing.
